FT Otter is definitely getting old. There is a noticeable difference in performance. If you look carefully in the corner picture you can see that the otter is a bit more brown/yellow than the F7F behind it. That's how beat up it is.

Is the fuse too thin?
unless your trying to build a scale model, the only things driving fuselage size is strength (can it handle the relevant forces) and cargo capacity (can you fit the electronics/batteries/etc that you need in it).

i assume that is your aileron and flaps? if so, i would keep them in line and straight. that gap you have is gonna lead to some weird flying which will change depending upon the flap position and the aileron movement.

just a htought,

me :cool:

The flap and ailerons are going to be next to each other not in front or behind each other.
Plus if it does lead to weird flying then it'd be fun to experiment with it.
I would like the flap to extend into where the ailerons are but the lack of airflow might lead to
the funky flying you speak of

How do I know how big my ailerons are supposed to be?
